    The Coziest Winter Nail Colors for January 2022

    The Coziest Winter Nail Colors for January 2022

    The beginning of a new year often has us all feeling like starting off fresh by taking on better habits, getting rid of old ones, and—most commonly—changing up our look. While others are hitting the squats and going into the salon for a pixie cut, why not start slow and steady with a cozy winter manicure in a color that feels new to you? It takes only a little courage to step outside your usual OPI Lincoln Park After Dark or Essie Bordeaux, which is all you need to kick 2022 off on a fanciful foot.  From new wintry takes on classic dark nail colors to unique pops of color that'll have you feeling the opposite of boring, these are the best nail colors to try this January and tick off all the way into spring.

    16 Kitchen Design Trends Southern Designers Predict Will Be Everywhere in 2022

    16 Kitchen Design Trends Southern Designers Predict Will Be Everywhere in 2022

    There's no denying how the pandemic fundamentally changed the world—including how we live (and work) inside our homes. An overall trend toward celebrating the history and originality of our homes is displacing ultramodern aesthetics and sharp lines as we all look to create cozier, colorful, more personalized spaces that better suit our lifestyles. We're turning away from big-box stores and toward vintage items—first, out of necessity due to supply-chain issues, and now, for design reasons—to add charm and character to every room in the house, including the kitchen. Here, interior designers from around the South share their predictions for what's trending in kitchen design for 2022 and beyond.

Dessert is a staple on just about every Southern table, but sometimes it's just too darn hot to fire up that oven. Especially during the summer. Don't get us started on the high temps and what feels like even higher humidity levels. The thought of baking a cake makes us feel like we're baking right along with it. Enter the no-bake icebox pie. It's everything we want in a dessert without so much as preheating the oven. Our icebox pie recipes are cool, creamy, and require minimal time on the stove, if any. Try our No-Bake Lemon Icebox Pie for a refreshing summer treat. It's lemony goodness atop a satisfyingly crunchy gingersnap crust. The chocolate fanatics will be delighted by our Black Bottom Icebox Pie, and the nostalgic among us will be transported to the good old days with Kool Aid Pie. Whichever icebox pie you choose, we're pretty certain it'll be on your dessert rotation all summer long.

Hot Chocolate Icebox Pie

Recipe: Hot Chocolate Icebox Pie

No one said hot chocolate was especially reserved for winter nights by the fire. Consider this the proof in the pudding. Or, in this case, pie.

Recipe: Black Bottom Icebox Pie

This is a chocolate pie to end all chocolate pies, and it's even a bit naughty if you add that splash of dark rum. Honestly, we're just here for the crust, a bed of buttery chocolate wafers.

Our Strawberry Lemonade Pie is a guaranteed showstopper, and you don't even have to turn on your oven. Strawberry coulis streaks through the lemonade filling for a dramatic (and delicious) effect.

Millionaire Pie

Recipe: Millionaire Pie

The creamy pastel-pink filling gets its hue from the maraschino cherries, while pecans add crunch and coconut and pineapple keep things tropical. It's the summer treat that'll have you imagining a day at the beach.

Recipe: Kool Aid Pie

We're throwing it back to a classic childhood summer drink with this Kool Aid Pie. It's only four ingredients (five if you want to count the whipped cream on top) and will evoke those memories of sipping the sweet punch on the front porch with your friends.

This No-Bake Banana Split Pie is everything our ice cream dreams are made of: crumbly chocolate cookies, vanilla pudding, whipped cream, and a sprinkling of nuts. Don't forget the cherry on top.

Watermelon Pie

Recipe: Watermelon Pie               

Watermelon is possibly the unofficial fruit of summer, so consider this summer's unofficial pie. A whole lot of watermelon juice firms up with the help of some tapioca powder before being made decadent with a generous amount of cream and mascarpone cheese. Yum.

S'mores Pie

Recipe: S'mores Pie

S'mores aren't just for camp and this pie packages everything we love about them into a neater and tidier package. If you miss the toasted marshmallow, try serving the whipped cream on the side and using a kitchen torch to brûlée the marshmallow fluff.
